うれしい〜

I’m really happy right now. You know why? Because I just finished an artbook picture!! *dances* I’m doing a lot better about not letting myself get distracted by other things, and just continuing to draw. I’m definitely very happy about that too, and finishing this picture only makes it better. >v<

I did a little bit of organizing today just to clean up my floor a bit and fix my bed (the covers were halfway on the floor lol). There is still stuff that needs to be dealt with–moved, trashed, given away, organized differently, etc.–but that can wait for now. Why? Because drawing is more important right now. Yep.

Also, my birthday is tomorrow! ovo As I said on Twitter last night, I have some idea of what we’re doing, but I still have this sense of mystery. Lol. Hopefully I won’t be melancholy like I have been the past few years when it was my birthday. I still feel like I’m fourteen or fifteen, and often get mistaken as a middle-school or high-school student, and so I guess adding another year chronologically makes me realize how far I’ve come and how much I’ve learned… So while I am still a kid basically in appearance and mannerisms, I am more mature than I was even just a few years ago, which I guess is what makes the difference between teens who think they are mature and teens who actually are mature. When I was thirteen, I thought I was very mature for my age, and was often told such. Yet looking back, and seeing thirteen-year olds now (heck, my brother will be thirteen next year), I realize just how immature I really was…I really didn’t know what I was doing. XD

It’s a bit difficult to explain; I hope you understand what I’m trying to say. >_<;

Oh! Today I tried singing lower, more like my natural voice, and it seemed to work pretty well. That might sound weird, because obviously I should be trying to sing like me and not someone else, but I’ve done “voice acting” singing for so long that I discovered I didn’t really know what my own singing voice sounded like. So lately I’ve been trying to be me and sound like myself, and get past the illusions I’ve had about my natural voice sounding bad–like, what, do I have to stress my vocal chords to sound like another singer to cover up my voice so I sound cuter? No! Just sound like myself. Goodness… ^^;
